Lana frowned in pain and turned around to see Kendrick looking at her coldly.
Lana remembered something. “Hans, teach that damn woman a lesson for me! I want you to wipe that smug grin off her face!”
“Alright, I’ll wipe that grin off her face now.” After that, a murderous look appeared on Kendrick’s elegant face.
When Lana heard that, she felt slightly relieved. Then, she looked over at Niamh and waited for Kendrick to teach her a lesson. However, in the next second, she received two heavy slaps on her face.
Kendrick was strong, so immediately after, blood started seeping out from the corners of Lana’s mouth.
Lana staggered backward and looked at the man with malice in his eyes dumbfoundedly.
“D-Did you just hit me?”
Lana was confused. She felt as if nothing was going according to her plan tonight.
It was fine that she was outsmarted by Niamh, but what was going on with Kendrick?
Lana did not understand and was furious. “Hans, what’s wrong? Why did you hit me?”
Kendrick’s gaze was like daggers. “You’re causing trouble during the anniversary of my company and even brought such a shameless woman to cause trouble for my wife. If I don’t hit you, then my name isn’t Kendrick Waldburg.”
“W-What?” Lana was dumbfounded once again.
Kendrick Waldburg!
He called himself Kendrick Waldburg!
He said Niamh was his wife!
Did he get his memories back?
When did this happen? Why had she not realized this?
Lana looked on in disbelief as the man’s eyes became colder and colder. However, she still smiled cockily. “Hans, don’t joke about things like this. The person you need to hit is Eveline Montgomery! I’m the love of your life.”
“Do you think you’re worthy of being my woman?” Kendrick said mercilessly, “You brainwashed me with fake news and memories when I had lost my memories. However, did you think I’ll be stuck like this forever?”
His eyes were as deep as abysses when he glared at Lana.
“Stop daydreaming. The only person I love in this world is my wife, Eveline Montgomery.”
What?
Lana felt as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water over her head. She was shivering from anger and wanted so badly to take out her gun to kill Niamh right now.
Karen grabbed Niamh’s hand in delight. “Eveline, did you hear that? Does Kendrick remember everything now? He said you’re his wife!”
Niamh smiled faintly when she heard what Karen said.
“It’s none of my business whether he remembers or not.”
Karen’s smile faded. “Eveline…”
“Mom, I’ll go look at Pudding. I’ll come back later,” Niamh said before turning around.
Kendrick noticed Niamh’s departure and ordered the security nearby, “Kick those two troublemakers out. Don’t let them dirty the premises of Waldburg Corporation.”
When Lana saw someone coming over to kick her out, she pushed the security away and yelled at Kendrick, “Kendrick, don’t regret what you did to me today!”
Kendrick was unperturbed. His eyes became icy instantly. “Regret? Lana, I remember everything you did to me. I’ll get you back for this. If you don’t leave now, you’ll be the one who regrets.”
“…”
Lana’s face turned white as she felt anxious.
She lifted her hand to wipe away the wine stain on her face before turning around to leave.
Naomi knew she would not get any goodies staying here, so she followed Lana and ran away.
Kendrick recomposed himself and smiled at the guests. After exchanging some courtesies with them, he turned around and asked Karen frantically, “Where’s Nia?”
“Kendrick, did you really get your memories back?” Karen asked in disbelief, her eyes brimming with excitement and longing.
Kendrick nodded. “I remember everything.”
Karen felt tears welling up in her eyes. “Did you really burn down Montgomery Manor?”
When he was asked about this, Kendrick fell silent.
He recalled the fire from that day. Then, he also recalled the horribly burnt Eloise and Sean.
When Karen saw him staying silent, melancholy quickly appeared on her face. “What should we do? You and Eveline—”
“Where did she go?” Kendrick asked.
Karen sighed. “She’s in the lounge. I think she’s feeding the baby now.”
Kendrick turned around quickly after he got his answer and ran toward the lounge.
When he saw a breastfeeding sign on the door, he walked up to it and lifted his hand.
He wanted to knock, but he hesitated.
After a while, he finally knocked.
Then, Niamh’s voice came from inside. “Mom, is that you? Come in.”
Kendrick knew Niamh was mistaking him for Karen, but he decided to just go along with it and went inside.
Niamh was not breastfeeding, but instead, she had her back toward him as she squatted next to the sofa. She looked like she was changing the baby.
“Mom, can you get the wet wipes for me? It’s in my bag.”
Niamh did not see who came in. Her attention was on the child who had just made a mess in his diaper.
When Kendrick approached her and handed her the wet wipes, she finally sensed that something was amiss.
She looked at the man in front of her as her gentle gaze immediately turned sharp.
She threw the wet wipes to the floor and took out a new one to wipe her baby.
Kendrick was heartbroken when he saw her being so disgusted by him.
Niamh ignored him. After she changed the baby and put on his clothes for him, she turned around to leave.
However, when she stood up, Kendrick held her from behind.
“Nia.”
He called out her name softly, his sad eyes filled with passion and apology.
Niamh said with no emotions, “Sign the divorce papers as soon as possible. I’ll take the children and find a good father for them soon. I’ll find them a good man who still has his humanity and conscience. My three children and I will have nothing to do with the man named Kendrick Waldburg anymore.”
After she said that, she escaped from his arms. However, Kendrick increased his strength on her.
“Nia, don’t leave me. Please don’t abandon me,” he pleaded with her.
Niamh lifted her head and tried to stop her tears from falling.
“Let go, Kendrick. We can never start over.”
“We can! Nia, we can start over!” the man emphasized emotionally. “Nia, I didn’t mean to forget you.”
“Heh.” Niamh snorted. In the end, tears still fell from her eyes. “How do you expect us to start over? How do you expect me to forgive you? You killed my parents! You burned my house down and killed my parents!”
Niamh yelled. There were too much sadness and emotions in her heart. Now, she was finally releasing them.
Kendrick’s eyes were red. He could not deny what he had done.
He let go of his arms and looked at her crying face. Then, he grabbed her hand and knelt.
“Nia, I’ll surrender and hand myself to the police. Let me use my life to repent for this.”
“Repent? How? Can you make my parents come back to life by doing this?” Niamh yelled emotionally, “How could you do such inhuman things? Even though you lost your memories and forgot about me, how could you do whatever Lana told you to do?”
Niamh scolded him, and he had no explanation for that.
He had been working for Lana in those three months.
Sometimes, he would not remember what he had done. When Lana told him about it, he would vaguely remember himself doing it.
